Violet 'Heartthrob', Hardy Violet 'Heartthrob'
Viola ‘Heartthrob’ is a low-growing perennial noted for its incredibly showy foliage of heart-shaped leaves adorned with deep burgundy centers that contrast with the bright green leaf edges. Classic lavender-violet flowers appear before the leaves in mid-spring, but get covered up later by the magnificent foliage. A wonderful foliage plant for containers, the front of the border, or as a ground cover.
